The Environmental Practitioner Programme
aims to develop skills at work for implementing better environmental
practices.
Environmental Practitioner
This is somebody, like a safety practitioner, whom employers rely on
and employees relate with. The key function of a practitioner is to
improve work practices that reduce negative environmental impacts. In
order to do that, a practitioner needs new environmental competences
- the skills, knowledge and understanding to perform these new practices.
The Environmental Practitioner ProgrammeTM
is particularly appropriate for people at work with some autonomy and
some responsibility for various environmental functions. Team leaders,
supervisors, union representatives and 'champions' are ideally placed
to become environmental practitioners.
EP Programme
The Environmental Practitioner ProgrammeTM
contains in-depth information on all aspects of environment issues,
environmental principles and work-related practices. This is a comprehensive
resource for anyone wishing to know more about the environment and
its relationship to work activities. Information, activities, extensive
links to other web resources quizzes and games
all help the learning process.
On completion of the Environmental
